Re: Power steering belt squeel

Well, I bought the right pulley and when I took apart the old pulley it was actually 2 pulleys with the outer pulley, I found, came from a 1993 model and the single pulley left was the original 1992 pulley. Anyway I put it all together with the right single pulley and correct belt....No more squeal!...

Re: Power steering belt squeel

Well, that didn't work. http://i1249.photobucket.com/albums/hh509/Onceler1/0106131406_zps5e643b23.jpg The water pump pulley is in the way. Looks like I'll have to find the right water pump pulley. I still don't understand why the power steering pump pulley is offset from the crank pulley. But oh wel...

Re: Power steering belt squeel

I see. I must have an oddball water pump pulley at the least. But I'll go get the right PS belt, I think that should fix the sqealing since the belt only has to wrap around 2 pulley's instead of the 3.
Thanks for your advice and pictures, Briano! I'll post back with the results.

You can see the mis-alignment on the power steering pump pulley compared to the other pulleys. http://i1249.photobucket.com/albums/hh509/Onceler1/0105132100_zps65b612e7.jpg This is a view from...

Power steering belt squeel

Hi. I haven't posted here in awhile due to my wife's cabby being in hibernation. I've had a problem with the power steering belt squeeling ever since we bought the car. It's a 1992 cabby. I've finally got around to looking at fixing it and I've found that the power steering pump pulley is mis-aligne...

Timing question

Hi all! I have maybe a basic question regarding setting the timing on my 92 cabby. I know that the timing should be set with the engine rpm at about 2250 rpm. However, when I turn on my timing gun with the engine at idle and watch the timing mark as I increase the rpm's, i notice that the advance st...

I've owned a few VW's in the past and this is my second Rabbit, the first being an 83 GTI with BBS body kit and wheels. That was a fun c...
